Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Would it be better to give a non-muslim an English only translation of the Qur’\u0101n, or a side by side translation, where there is the possibility of them handling it in a state of impurity?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is compulsory to have wudhu touch the Quran even if it may be only one verse.[1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When introducing a non-Muslim to the Qur’an, it is best to give them an English only translation of the Qur’an as wudhu will not be needed to touch it.\u00a0 Because non-Muslims generally are not capable of reading and understanding the Arabic language, the translation of the meanings of the Qur’an will be better for them.<\/span><\/p>\n
